Looks like a 3 from here too. The exact distance between firing pin centers will tell us the frame size for certain.

I am also in need of a screw. A hammer screw, that is. I jus bought a D Grade 3 Parker hammergun #3 frame with 30 inch barrels. SN 1089XX. Left side screw is original & engraved, right side is a poor replacement. The gun is in very fine condition but has light rust overall.

Any suggestions on the screw and cleaning would be greatly appreciated. The gun has scalloped breeches and fishtail top lever. The pistolgrip stock has the name "F.H. Beach" stamped on the left side near the skeleton buttplate.

Best Regards, George

George, have you checked with Robert Beach to see if this gun was owned by a relative?

Dean: F.H. Beach Beach is no longer among the living. The person that I bought the gun from said that it belonged to her deceased husband's grandfather. It came along with a VH 12 gauge which is in serious need of repair. The PGCA site says that no info is available on either gun but I am going to order one from Mark Conrad & hope for the best.

Best Regards, George

George, Bob would be surprised to hear that.

He can be reached Griffin & Howe, Inc.

He is the head of the Firearms Research Department.

Steve: Would it surprise you to know that I am a member of PGCA and have been for a number of years.

Dean: My error! I should have said: "F.H. Beach is no longer among the living, etc. " I will try to reach Mr. Robert Beach at G&H and enquire if F.H. might be his ancestor. I seem to remember that the author of "Run Silent Run Deep" also had the last name of Beach. thanks for the correction.

Best Regards, George
